$USER_PRINCIPAL_NAME$ for datasource username not working with exported RDM config (default.cfg)

Hi,
Thank you for reaching out.
I am working on the case.
I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Best regard

Hi
I appreciate your patience while I was working on the case.
When users open the new cfg file, they are prompted to enter their username for the data source.
This should not be a problem for Domain users as they don't need UPN to connect.
However, EntraID users will need to enter their UPN/email as it is required anyway.
Users are only prompted for the first time they import the cfg file.





Best regards,

Hi Rodrigue,

The issue is, prior to one of the RDM 2024.1 releases, the $USER_PRINCIPAL_NAME$ variable could be used in the exported default.cfg, and users were not prompted to enter their username for the datasource. This capability needs to be restored, because without it users get confused as to whether to enter UPN/Email or just domain username.

Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe,
Thank you for your feedback and your patience while working on the case.
You can avoid the prompt by enabling this option during the export: Include data source credentials.


I hope this will help.

Best regards,

Hi Rodrigue,

Thanks, that seems to have resolved the issue.
